practice lesson

On Monday my feelings toward people just grew worse and worse and this grew into feelings of great dissatisfaction with this society and being a part of it, then feelings helplessness, inadequacy and disgust.

Then I did not want to do the evening hike, but I got myself over there.

As I drove home after the hike I was smiling, things had changed. Wow, take a walk in nature with friends and let all those feelings go. That was not so difficult.

I thought there was a lesson to learn but I think lessons for me are difficult and practicing is my lesson.

A practice will be to observe the feelings and try not to obsess. Everything changes and so will my feelings. Feeling crappy or great, does not matter, it will change.
